Once again I've disabled messages from the group above. Again I worried about this newsletter which to many times advertises ancient programs. Even with no change to the software within the last decade the so called 'newsletter' lists such programs.

Do anyone like such regular advertising of stone age old software?

You could always filter it to Trash or train your email client that it is spam.

Hello Andi B.

What I had noticed on eCSoft/2 is that they include on the new e-mail when they update the page even of old software. I don't think that is bad, but maybe they would have to catalog the news like "Site Updates" and put the old stuff there.

I think that the options that you have are 1) Spam filter 2) deregister from "Warp" and only belonging to "warp-technical" 3)Just ignoring the email and don't open it if you feel that it does not provides you what you need.

When I created the group.io mailing lists my idea was for [Warp] to get all the news and [Warp-Technical] to replace [eComStation Technical] (since Yahoo sunset all their groups) with all the user help and discussion. But some people like to ask and discuss things on [Warp] and I'm not against it. It seemed that my idea was not organic and thing shaped in a different way.
